"They do the same with University, they stand "on line," while we stand "in line," and they go, "on holiday," rather than on A holiday - just another example of the evolution of language."

archaeopteryx replied to G's discussion 'Is your trust in science based on faith or based on science?'
Holo Gram replied to tyler zborovancik's discussion 'Need help with a tattoo for my daughter.'"I understand that tattoos have much meaning to many people, although I would never get one. (I'm from the wrong generation.) Our Latino Catholic neighbor is poor with five daughters, and his mother recently died in Mexico. Every so often he…"

Pope OoO (Out of Order) replied to G's discussion 'Is your trust in science based on faith or based on science?'"Well, I "choose to conform" to what can be independently realized by independent paths, all around the world. Different forms or points of view of science exist in individual fields of study, but they eventually support each other in…"
BryanPaul replied to Mercedes's discussion 'Why do atheists ask for so much proof to believe in God?'"If god were fake we wouldn't have the bible? Ok, if Ra were fake we wouldn't have the writings of RA."
archaeopteryx replied to G's discussion 'Is your trust in science based on faith or based on science?'"I'm not getting into this thing between you and Gallup, Bob, despite the fact that it appears to have begun over a remark I made, regarding papal infallibility, simply because, a) Gallup is perfectly capable of holding his own and doesn't…"
Diane replied to G's discussion 'Is your trust in science based on faith or based on science?'"I wrote a lengthy reply having to to with the creative use of the words 'faith' and 'evidence' but I realized it is a futile effort. You know these things already.
What I want to know is what is the point you are…"
Pope OoO (Out of Order) replied to G's discussion 'Is your trust in science based on faith or based on science?'"Well put. May compassion and objectivity win over anger. Even in atheists."
Welcome to TA
Our Radio Show
 This week on the Think Atheist Radio Show we have our interview with Dr. Sebastian Seung! Dr. Seung is a professor of computational neuroscience at MIT. A leading researcher in the emerging field of connectomics– the field of study that is attempting to map the connections in our brains– he has made important advances in artificial intelligence, neuroscience, neuroeconomics, and statistical physics. His recently published book, Connectome, does just what the subtitle says, explains how the brain's wiring makes us who we are. With implications for personality, identity, intelligence, memory, and even disorders such as autism and schizophrenia, this is a wide-ranging and fascinating book on a subject that would be right at home in a sci-fi movie but is in fact real! Don't miss this discussion!
And don't miss our recent interview with Dr. Jessica Pierce! Working in bioethics, Dr. Pierce is the co-author of Wild Justice: The Moral Lives of Animals. What does it say about human morality and what does it mean for the study of morality that many animals demonstrate behaviors that can only be described with words like "justice", "fairness", and "altruism"? Make sure to check out all of our past shows and see who's coming up in the next few weeks! You can also grab the shows from our iTunes page. |
